Biology/Introduction To Biology
Define osmosis
the
diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of
lower solute concentrate to a region of higher solute concentration.
Does not require ATP = Passive Transport
Define diffusion
Movement
of solutes from an area of higher solute concentration to an area of
lower solute concentration. Down the concentration gradient Requires NO
ATP Passive transport
Define facilitated diffusion
Diffusion
of BIG, charged, hydrophilic molecules from an area of high
concentration to an area of low concentration through channels Down the
concentration gradient
Requires NO ATP Passive transport
Requires NO ATP Passive transport
Define Active Transport
The
net movement of dissolved particles against their concentration
gradient (from an areal of low concentration to an are of high
concentration) with the help of carrier molecules Requires ATP
What are three types of passive transport?
Diffusion Facilitated diffusion Osmosis
Which
of the following is an example of passive transport? A. Facilitated
diffusion B. The sodium-potassium pump C. Phagocytosis D. Exocytosis E.
Pinocytosis
A. Facilitated diffusion
What are examples of endocytosis?
1. Phagocytosis 2. Pinocytosis 3. Receptor Mediated endocytosis
What is phagocytosis?
Cell eating
What is pinocytosis?
Cell drinking (moves liquids into the cell)
What is receptor mediated endocytosis?
enables
the cell to acquire bulk quantities of specific substances, even though
those substances may not be very concentrated in the extracellular
fluid. Use of specific receptors embedded in the protein.
Phagocytosis,
pinocytosis and receptor-mediated endocytosis all involve: A. the
intake of large particles B. invagination of the plasma membrane C. the
export of macro molecules D. the presence of receptor proteins E. the
intake of fluids by the cell
B. invagination of the plasma membrane
Osmosis
is a specific form of: A. diffusion B. facilitated diffusion C. active
transport D. secondary active transport E. movement of water by carrier
proteins
A. Diffusion
Osmosis
moves water from a region of ____ to a region of ____. A. high
concentration of dissolved material; low concentration of dissolved
material B. low concentration of dissolved material; high concentration
of dissolved material C. hypertonic solution; hypotonic solution D.
negative osmotic potential; positive osmotic potential E. low
concentration of water; high concentration of water
B. low concentration of dissolved material; high concentration of dissolved material
Active
transport usually moves molecules: A. in the same direction as
diffusion B. in the opposite direction of diffusion C. in a direction
that tends to bring about equilibrium D. toward higher pH E. toward
higher osmotic potential
B. in the opposite direction of diffusion
Sodium-potassium
pumps are common in many cells. Which of the following are necessary
for the pumps to work? A. ATP B. A channel protein C. No concentration
gradient D. All of the above
A. ATP
Which of these cannot rapidly pass directly through the phospholipids of the plasma membrane? A. Lipid soluble molecule B. Water C. Glucose D. Hydrogen Ion
B, C & D
A semipermeable membrane is placed between the following solutions.
Which solution will decrease in volume? A. Solution A: 1.4%
(m/v) starch B. Solution B: 7.62% (m/v) starch
A.
Solution A: 1.4% (m/v) starch The water molecules actually move in both
directions, but they move to a greater extent toward Solution B because
it has a higher solute concentration than Solution A. The net movement
of water molecules causes Solution A to decrease in volume and Solution B
to increase in volume.
A semipermeable membrane is placed between the following solutions.
Which solution will increase in volume? A. Solution C: 9% (m/v)
NaCl B. Solution D: 12.4% (m/v) NaCl
B.
Solution D: 12.4% (m/v) NaCl The water molecules actually move in both
directions, but they move to a greater extent toward Solution D because
it has a higher solute concentration than Solution C. This net movement
of water molecules causes Solution D to increase in volume and Solution C
to decrease in volume.
What name is given to the process by which water crosses a selectively
permeable membrane? A. pinocytosis B. diffusion
C. osmosis D. passive transport E. phagocytosis
C. osmosis
